Vraisemblance et ‘illusion auctoriale’ dans le roman contemporain

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Contemporary novels – namely those from Jean Echenoz and from Jean-Philippe Toussaint – constantly call attention to the artificial nature of their plot and make use of rewriting techniques which give way to a feeling of connivance between author and reader. They accentuate the role of the author and his writing options rather than the verisimilitude of the fictional world: it is this voice which directly addresses the reader and the situation under which it communicates which assures verisimilitude and creates what one could call an “authorial illusion”, in other words the belief in a direct contact or relationship between reader and author.
